Is this really your relations, ???
 
As I have been before and got pictures only to be told that it's not theirs.

Please don't take offence, but I went out in all the ice and snow to find one, only to be told not theirs yet they posted it was, with no mention of possibly not!!

Southern Cemetery is a Very large cemetery, the older the graves, the harder it is to make some of them out. :P

Visiting within the next couple of weeks, will get you some pictures, if someone get pictures before I go can you post reply to let us all know!!

Thanks,

Cancan :)

Apologies to Mancsman if that how it reads to you.

I would just like to be little more certain of details and sometimes they can be found by searching alittle more!!

Obviously Blue-Sten is not  a previous issue I've had on any searches, otherwise I wouldn't have answered request.

Apologies to Blue-Sten if I've offended you!!!! 

Would you me to me to take a look for you!!

Hi

I would much appreciate if someone could photograph a grave at Southern Cemetery also.

Mary Ellen Southern buried 10/12/1902
also Maude Louie Southern and Mary Holmes in the same grave.

Section B Church of England grave No 977.

No question, these are definitely my people.

I live in the North East so any help would be fantastic.

Thanks

Mick.
